Research interests
In biology, I am using my biomechanical tools to help understand the migrations of lamprey. Specifically, I have recently looked at Pacific lamprey making their way up manmade ramps. I generally enjoy considering the interaction between the physics of the environment and animals.
In science education, I am looking at factors that influence the inclusion of topics and activities in classroom, specifically looking at teacher/instructor decision making. Most recently, this has focused on ocean and Great Lakes education.
